I can't provide list context on the calling side though because the "return" of the function is defined/used by the Bot::BasicBot::Pluggable::Module class (or one of it's ancestors) to directly speak to the irc channel. Everything that gets returned should be said in the channel by the bot. Apparently the programmers of that module didn't think of a possible list context case.

So it was one of my mistakes to assume that array elements (of a returned array) would be printed out (=said in the channel) automatically...
